Elon Musk’s $54.20 per share offer buyout (approximately worth $46.5 billion) was unanimously approved by the Twitter Board of Directors and expected to close this year. Musk has promised to return free speech to the social media platform, but there are plenty who want to “delete Twitter” rather than be “subjected” to free speech.
After weeks of pro-establishment slaves screaming that Musk will ruin so-called “free speech” on the social media platform, there’s been an uptick in internet searches to “delete Twitter,” according to AskGamblers. Total global search trends, including all countries, suggest an increase of 698% in searches for “delete Twitter,” a spokesperson for AskGamblers said. As if there’s free speech on Twitter to begin with.
“It’s interesting to see how Twitter users are disappointed when the world’s richest man buys out one of the most popular social media platforms in the world for $44bn,” the spokesperson added. What’s more ridiculous, is that they seem to be ticked off that the official narrative may now be questioned.
And obviously, the establishment media is quite literally melting down and publishing articles on “How to Delete Your Twitter Account.”
Musk has described himself as a free speech absolutist. And perhaps under his leadership, Twitter will get out of the business of censoring anyone who challenges or has a different opinion than the establishment. Perhaps. But it may not change anything at all either. In this day and age, it would do most of humanity a lot of good to question anyone, especially the wealthiest man in the world.
While concern over Twitter’s “free speech” or lack thereof is valid, ruling classes, such as the one in the United States and its propaganda outlets known as the mainstream media will continue to make sure their narrative is the one that matters. A transfer of power to Musk may mean nothing more than a different face on a puppet, but we will see.
